    Plus, being a Q you can be as snarky as you want . . . .

    Yes, but removing the pay factor is illogical. It would be a professional job and the pay would be commensurate.

    Right here buddy.
    I'd be an ensign, specifically an engineer on TNG and hopefully I get a corny over simplification scene; "Ooh, like catching a fish with a net?". It wouldn't be a career based choice, I'd just be stoked to hang out with the crew for 5 episodes.

    Nah, those lines go to regulars and guest stars. At best you might get an "aye, aye sir" or "power levels normal". :p

    Indeed. Best answer. :)

    Me, I'd go with the Q role. Couldn't pass up the chance to be flashy, crazy and antagonize a Starfleet ship and crew with my omnipotent powers, especially if it was the TNG crew. :D

    On TOS, a redshirt, because hanging out around the regular cast for 5 episodes would be amazing. :drool:

    Any other series, a Q - because it's more fun and would look better on my resume.

    The ensign because I'd be a terrible Q.

    Absolutely Q, then I could fly all over the world forever after doing conventions and signing stuff and snapping my fingers.
